Find the tenth term of the geometric sequence, given the first term and common ratio.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Natalija [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a_{10}=\dfrac{1}{128}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the geometric series:

a_1=4\\ \\r=\dfrac{1}{2}

The nth term of the geometric sequence can be calculated using formula

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

In your case, n = 10, then

a_{10}\\ \\=4\cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{10-1}\\ \\=4\cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^9\\ \\=2^2\cdot \dfrac{1}{2^9}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{2^{9-2}}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{2^7}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{128}

HELP! I'll mark you the brainest and give you all my points !! (Show all work)
Paha777 [63]

1. F(3)= -2(3)-5

-6-5

F(3)=-11

2. F(3)= -2(3)^2-4

-6^2-4

36-4

F(3)=32

3. F(x)=−2x−5

For: x=−2, f(x) is:f(−2)=(−2×−2)−5=4−5=−1

For: x=−1, f(x) is:f(−1)=(−2×−1)−5=2−5=−3

For: x=1, f(x) is:f(1)=(−2×1)−5=−2−5=−7

For: x=2, f(x) is:f(2)=(−2×2)−5=−4−5=−9

The Range is:

{−1,−3,−7,−9}

4. -80, -110

The upper quartile for the data set given below is. 14, 8, 23, 9, 11, 27, 22, 3, 17, 12, 29
LekaFEV [45]
Ok, first we need to organize.
<span>14, 8, 23, 9, 11, 27, 22, 3, 17, 12, 29
</span>3, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 17, 22, 23, 27, 29.

First, we need to find the median, the or the middle, which is 14.
Now that we know the median is fourteen, we take away all numbers to the left of 14, including 14: 17, 22, 23, 27, 29. Now just find the median in this new set of numbers. This will give us our upper quartile, which is 23. Hope this helped, and don't forget to drop a like.

a model plane has a scale of 1 in: 2 ft. if the real plane is 12 ft tall then how tall is the model plane.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

6ft tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Given we know that the scale is 1 in 2ft.

Using this information we know we could divide 12/2=6. We also know that we could multiply 2×6=12. Therefore, we know that the model plane is 6ft tall.

I hope this helps!
